Plans: Main Floor



So these are the nearly final plans to the main floor. I wanted a playroom on the main level so that I could hear the kids but still be cooking/cleaning on the main floor. The wall upon entry will be same flush wood material used outside and it will wrap in to the stairwell and end in the kitchen at the pantry and be also on the fireplace. The dashed lines outside of the playroom will be a barndoor that will slide both ways to close off the room with the option of closing off the entire powder/closet area as well. The powder bath will have an exterior door outside to head out to the pool area. The whole main floor is hardwood, we are thinking a natural/matte beech wood. There is a step down into the family room with two square columns wrapped in wood as you go down in. There is an 18ft by 8 feet tall wall of modern sliding glass doors out to a screened porch with a concrete floor. We are excited about the potential to also entertain outside, taking advantage of the great view, but not the mosquitoes! That will be one of our favorite rooms I think. The kitchen will blend into the dining which will also have a door to the screen porch as well as a door out to the back deck. All of the windows are casement (crank open with no center pane) so it will be an unobstructed view all around. The stairs will have a steel rail and be hardwoods as well. The dining will have built in low cabinets on the wall as well.
I think that is about all we have on the main floor nailed down. Still working through backsplash ideas and lighting...
